Stories about sexual activity abound and are often the source of considerable interest and speculation. These anecdotal accounts are rarely subjected to any serious scrutiny and yet may develop folklore proportions. It is concerning that many forensic practitioners are prepared to perpetuate similar myths behind a veneer of scientific practice. Practices such as impotence or virginity testing and the interpretation of penile measurements are lucrative endeavors that remain alive and well. Similarly, court evidence on topics such as the circumstances by which genital injuries were sustained, the relationship between pubertal staging and age or the interpretation of anal findings are often less than objective. These practices are unprofessional. Further, they have the potential to cause significant harm to many individuals and to undermine the standing of the criminal justice system.
Everyone knows the story of the tooth fairy, but fine art degree student Cordelia Cembrowicz has transformed the mythical figure in a most unusual way.
